I take that back, sometimes it can. :-) I spoke with Lynn Griffin at the BXA about this subject. She said the only requirement is to fill out this form (I filled in some of the details): BEGIN FORM ---------- SUBJECT: ENC NOTIFICATION SUBMISSION TYPE: ENC SUBMITTED BY: SUBMITTED FOR: (company or person exporting the encryption item) POINT OF CONTACT: PHONE and/or FAX: MANUFACTURER: (if relevant) PRODUCT NAME/MODEL #: Python 2.2 ECCN: 5D002 NOTIFICATION: http://www.python.org http://python.org/ftp/python/2.2/ http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/python/python/dist/src/Modules/rotormodule.c -------- END FORM The instructions are available from: http://www.bxa.doc.gov/Encryption/PubAvailEncSourceCodeNofify.html. The email should be sent to: crypt@bxa.doc.gov. She also recommended a disclaimer on the website that the software is exported under US Export laws and can't be exported to the 7-8 countries or other specifically prohibited individuals. It seems we should submit this form, but for whom? PSF? Who should be the point of contact? Neal
